1. What is the formula to calculate kinetic energy?

• A. Kinetic Energy = Mass × Velocity
• B. Kinetic Energy = Force × Distance
• C. Kinetic Energy = Power × Time
• D. Kinetic Energy = Potential Energy ÷ Time

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Kinetic energy is the energy an object possesses due to its motion. The formula to calculate kinetic energy is KE = 0.5 × mass × velocity^2, which can also be written as KE = mass × (velocity)^2. Therefore, the correct formula is Kinetic Energy = Mass × Velocity. Choice B is incorrect because it represents the work formula. Choice C is incorrect as it represents the formula for work done. Choice D is incorrect as it does not accurately represent the formula for calculating kinetic energy.

2. What are the components of the female external genitalia and their functions?

• A. Ovaries: internal reproductive organs
• B. Vulva: external structures of the female genitalia
• C. Uterus: internal reproductive organ for fetal development
• D. Vagina: birth canal

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The corrected answer is B: 'Vulva: external structures of the female genitalia.' The vulva includes external structures such as the labia, clitoris, and vaginal opening. These structures play roles in sexual arousal and protection of the internal genital organs. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they are internal reproductive organs. The ovaries produce eggs, the uterus houses the developing fetus, and the vagina serves as the birth canal. Hence, they are not components of the female external genitalia.

3. What is apoptosis, and how is it involved in embryonic development?

• A. Uncontrolled cell growth
• B. Programmed cell death
• C. DNA replication
• D. Cell division

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Apoptosis is the process of programmed cell death, not uncontrolled cell growth (Choice A). It plays a vital role in embryonic development by eliminating unnecessary or damaged cells, sculpting organs, and ensuring proper tissue organization. Through apoptosis, the embryo undergoes controlled cell death to shape structures accurately. This mechanism is essential for the precise development of organs and tissues, emphasizing the significance of apoptosis in embryogenesis. DNA replication (Choice C) and cell division (Choice D) are essential cellular processes but are not directly related to apoptosis or its role in embryonic development.

4. Which of the following could be considered a theme of the passage?

• A. Anyone can become royalty.
• B. People should only marry for advantage.
• C. Queen Victoria was a fair, but unlikely, queen.
• D. Even the most unlikely events can happen.

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The theme of the passage revolves around the idea that even the most unlikely events can happen. The passage describes the improbable events leading to Queen Victoria becoming the queen, emphasizing how unpredictable and unexpected her rise to the throne was. Choice A is not supported as Victoria was born into royalty, so not just anyone can become royalty as implied. While there are mentions of marriages for advantage in the passage, it is not the central theme but rather a detail in the historical context, making choice B incorrect. Although the passage discusses Queen Victoria being an unlikely queen, this statement is too specific to be a theme; a theme should be broader and universally applicable, making choice C incorrect.

5. Which term describes the ability of a substance to conduct electricity?

• A. Reactivity
• B. Density
• C. Conductivity
• D. Viscosity

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Conductivity is the correct term used to describe the ability of a substance to conduct electricity. Reactivity is the measure of a substance's tendency to undergo chemical reactions. Density refers to the mass per unit volume of a substance, while viscosity is a measure of a fluid's resistance to flow. In the context of conducting electricity, conductivity is the most appropriate term as it directly relates to the substance's electrical conductive properties.
